Did Not Try to Resusci.ate Spies.

CHICAGO November 22.--The story circu-
lated that efforts were made to resuscitate the
body of August Spies, after his execution, is
positively denied by DR.. George Thio who eX-
amined the body after it was delivered to
Spies's friends and pronounced life 10 be total
ly extinct. DR.. Thlo says:
"When the body was first brought TO Muel-
lers undertaking establishment some people
present thought they perceived an unusual
warmth in the corpse, and / was sent for. /
made careful examination of the remains
and was soon convinced that death had inter
vened and that any attempt by reviyitication by
galvanic battery. or any other means, would
be useless, and SO informed the gentlemen
present. There was no attempt. whatever, TO
restore life. The fact that the body was warm
proves nothing, as it takes six
or seven hours for the natural heat to
leave it, especially when death is violent
and sudden. When l first saw the body rigor
Inortis had already set in, and had stiffened
the neck and jaw. There is but one case known
to medical science where a man iudicially
hung has been resuscitated. That case &C
CURED in Austria few years ago, when a man
was hung for fifteen minutes, and five minutes
later batteries were applied and at last the
subject revived, but in a state of wild dellrium.
From this he never recovered, and in twenty
four hours he died. In Spies's case it was
three hours before the body was brought to the
undertaker's He was dead beyond any hope
of rcSuscitation."

Particulars of the Burning of Barnum's Mn
sonIn ut Bridgenort.

BRmGEroRr, Conn, November 21-The
fire which broke out last night in the winter
quarters Of Barnum * Bailey's circus, de-
strovel the large main building, in which
were stored all the principal animals used in
the great show, and they were nearly all de-
sroyed, including four elephants, five lions,
seven leopards, six panthers, four kangaroos,
six horses, and a largo number OF smaller
beasts. Among the elephants burned were
Alice, Sampson, and the sacred white ele-
plant one of the large elephants escaped
and this morning was found drowned in the
sound near the lighthouse, where it had gone
in its fright. Aside from this the only animal
that escaped beyond the grounds was large
lion, which wandered into Christopher
Richards barnyard, where it attacked a COW
and calf, making an early breakfast OF the
latter.
Mrs. Rickard undertook to drive the beast
away, not knowing or realizing the nature Of
the beast until warned by a neghbor when
she made n hasty exit. The animal was shot
soon after by one of the circus employees Otto
Mabie, an elephant trainer, by his heroic
efforts, saved eighteen elephants. Mr. Bailey
said this morning, that 100000 wouldlrprob-
ably cover the loss. Insurance on the building
and property burned, is as follows: Building,
81 ,l25 animals, S350OO. OF the latter amount
8 800 was on elephants burned. 50 ,250 on
hppopotamus. The building will be rebuilt as
soon as possible. Besides the above property
destroyed were two Of tho largest chariots,

The origin OF the fire is still a mystery, buf
the general opinion is that it was the work OF
an incendiary. George Myers one of the
watchmen, and one of the first to discover the
FIRE, started to enter the building and was
knocked down by an unknown man. WHO
struck him two blows on the head with blunt
instrument lie lay unconscious some time,
and when he came TO the building was in
flames. A short billy was found near the
place this morning. The fire started in the
stable.

What is Respiration :?

Respiration is not merely the taking OF air
into the lungs. The air must first be inhaled.
Then the blood passing through the air-flled
lungs, takes up the oxygen from the air, and
carries it TO every part OF the body. Rospira-
ton begins with our first Introduction into the
1orld, and is kept up day and night, sleeping
or walking, till life ends.
When Compound Oxygen, the great yitaliz-
ing remedy for disease, Is taken into the sys-
ten, IL is not introduced into the stomach. but
in FAR more direct way into the lungs.
Hence, IL is taken mp in the ordinary aud regu-
lar process OF respiration, its benehcent effects
being carried TO every part OF the system.
Acting directly ON the blood, il refresheS, re-
stores and invigorates the whole system
When all the attempts at the healing OF
chronic in6rmities have failed Compound
Oxygen has sometimes accomplished the
work completely and permanently. II you

Meetings of the "Kickers''-The Movement
Against Powderiy.

CHICAGO, November 22-The so-called
"knightly kickers" held their first local meet
ing last night, with an attendance of about
fifty regularly-clected delegates present from
five local assemblies, and sef-constituted rep
resentatiyes from twenty more. Charles Seib,
secretary of the provisional committee APP
pointed by thirty-fve seeding delegates of the
Minneapolis general convention of the knights
of Labor, otfciated as chairman, and explained
the object of the meeting. There were sew
eral present who were not in accord with the
movement, and they were utterly mpervious
to all insinuations that Spies were not wanted.
In a speech, Joseph II. Buchanan, 'head
kicker" declared that the time had
come when honest knights of Labor must, for
the time at least renounce all allegiance with
the corrupt ring that now controls the great
and noble order. He stated that it had been
found impossible to maintain an effective
fight, from the inside, and that tho only course
left, was to declare open revolt against the
powers that be. After the usual number of
speeches, a committee of five was appointed
to draft letter to all local assemblies in
Cook county calling upon them to elect three
delegates to the convention to be held on the
first "Wednesday in December. The locals
will be asked to withhold from the general
treasury all assessments due from this time
on the scheme being to ''freeze out" General
Master Workman Powderly.
conventions similar TO the one called in
Chicago" explained Charles Seib, will be
held all over the United States. We shall
obtain control Of the knights of Labor in all
large cities, inside OF three months AS soon
as possible, national convention will be
called and regular organization perfected"
